Chapter 504

We ran for hours. I stayed well away from the pack house and the dead caves. Nix and Megan kept me company as I worked through everything that was bouncing away in my head. Megan laid her head on my lap as I sat against the tree that I attacked earlier. "Do you think they are still looking for us?" Her question was soft.

"Probably not." Nix called back. "I haven't heard anyone in a long time, and they probably figured we needed space."

I shook my head. "They have to keep a low profile. No one can find out they are still alive." I ran my fingers through her fur.

She cocked her head to stare up at my face with one eye. "How does no one know the pack is alive?" She twisted, getting to her feet. "I've been thinking about this for a while and I have no idea how no one has figured out that the pack survived."

Nix slid to a stop. "I've never thought about it until right now. But Megan is right. You would think someone would have checked, right?"

I snorted. "Hubris."

"What?" Both my wolves sounded confused.

"I can't be certain, but knowing the players...Aurora, Verity, Vince. Without ever meeting Garith, I can honestly say they all are the same. They are cocky. Full of themselves. And searching for a dead person is a waste of their time." I looked at Megan. "Someone saw my dad die, and they took it and ran with it." I raised a shoulder. "There is a ninety percent chance my dad is using magic to cover up his tracks, but it all boils down to the fact that they are too full of themselves to double check someone they think is dead is really dead."

Megan snorted. "Stupid."
